Excerpt
1:
I sauntered out
of the room in search of Darius. If he thought he could avoid me, he would need
to rethink his strategy. He was in his bedroom with his hip braced against the
window frame, staring out at the ocean.
“I thought we
agreed you would break the bond and leave,” he snapped without looking around.
“No, I didn’t
agree to either of those things, Darius. Just because you are my mate doesn’t
mean you can tell me what to do.” I sat on the end of the bed.
His back
stiffened at the word mate.
“You can’t stay
here.”
“I can stay
anywhere you are. We share a blood link.”
That got his
attention because he spun around. “I could block access to all my homes...”
I sighed and
stood up, letting some of my power loose. His arms were pinned against the wall
beside his head, and his feet stuck to the floor. “The problem is, Darius, that
you belong to me just as I am yours. I have no intention of going anywhere.”
I stepped
against him and watched as he swallowed and glanced away. He could neutralise
every feature, but his body betrayed him. I ran my fingers over his chest to
his waist, deliberately moving closer to sniff his mating mark on his neck.
“Definitely no
nymphs or succubus scents, Darius. You’ll need to try harder if you want to
make me jealous.” My breath mingled with his. “We are made from the same
energy. If I am unable to stomach the thought of another lover, the same
applies to you.”
I pressed myself
against him, and felt his automatic reaction to my presence. I nipped his
mating mark with my teeth, and his quick inhale of breath made me smile.
Tracing the outline of it with my tongue, I held onto his waist as an anchor.
My lips kissed a path up his neck, even as he held his head away from me. The
tips of my fangs dragged against the artery that pulsed in his neck.
Sexual tension
pulsed off him in waves, and my dragoness purred in contentment.
“You belong to
me, Darius. Make no mistake, I will annihilate any female you try to take as a
lover.” His head spun towards me, and my lips connected with his. I grabbed his
head in my hands and poured every emotion that vibrated through my body into my
lips.
He had always
initiated our previous kisses. I needed to show him that I’d made a choice and
he was the winner. I refused to let my past paralyse me anymore. Hecate wanted
me to be a worthy heir to her magic. I would not allow anyone to hold me back
from my fate.
Darius tried to
resist me, but his dragon had other ideas. I felt him shimmer to the surface as
his heat increased, gold flecks flashing across his skin. My tongue demanded
entry to his mouth, because every breath of his belonged to me and vice versa.
The rest of the
world faded into insignificance, my only focus the man in front of me. He
struggled against the invisible restraints that held him, his dragon trying to
get closer to his mate. I dropped my hands from his face and pressed one last
kiss on his lips.
“You are mine,
Darius. That is as true now as it was four hundred years ago. You can ignore me
and leave a room when I enter it, but it will not change the fact that we
belong together.”
I turned and
walked towards the door, releasing his restraints.
My lips spread
into a smile when I heard him screaming FUCK into the empty room.
Darius had spent
his whole life being in charge, but I was the Gaian Enchantress, and I would no
longer let my life be stolen away from me. The time had arrived for me to take
what was mine.
